Sequence of P3 Data Collection in the South FY 1991 through FY 2003

1. Sequence of P3 Data Collection in the South FY 1991 through FY 2003 Southern Research Station June 26, 2003 Presentation begins at the point when the old South and old Southeastern stations combined into one operational unit in the FIA field. Prior to this all field procedures were separate between the two, even though the stations had merged prior to FY97.Presentation begins at the point when the old South and old Southeastern stations combined into one operational unit in the FIA field.
